18 /* This program uses the same features as example 3, but has more
19 options, and somewhat more structure in the -help output. It
20 also shows how you can `steal' the remainder of the input
21 arguments past a certain point, for programs that accept a
22 list of items. It also shows the special argp KEY value
23 ARGP_KEY_NO_ARGS, which is only given if no non-option
24 arguments were supplied to the program.
26 For structuring the help output, two features are used,
27 *headers* which are entries in the options vector with the
28 first four fields being zero, and a two part documentation
29 string (in the variable DOC), which allows documentation both
30 before and after the options; the two parts of DOC are
31 separated by a vertical-tab character ('\v', or '\013'). By
32 convention, the documentation before the options is just a
33 short string saying what the program does, and that afterwards
34 is longer, describing the behavior in more detail. All
35 documentation strings are automatically filled for output,
36 although newlines may be included to force a line break at a
37 particular point. All documentation strings are also passed to
38 the `gettext' function, for possible translation into the
39 current locale. */
